      I think it is either "Sometimes" moment or reason for Reboot arc. As at that point in the story there's no attempt of making Mark this selfish hero show tries to potray him, no, instead he is shown what comic hinted a little bit, but then coming back to: Mark was never a good person, but tried to play a role of hero for own sense of fulfilment.

    I was so F’n mad when I was watching my stories on Amazon Prime and then it abruptly stops the episode and then suddenly COMMERCIALS take over my screen!!! WTF?! This is some B.S. corporate money grubbing, and every industry is pushing the envelope with just how much profit they can squeeze out of every product and consumer down to the last literal penny.
    With how streaming is developing and evolving I feel like I’m watching the birth/rebirth of CABLE TELEVISION cable television again. Fist commercials happen on every streaming service to offset costs for each “channel” then they bundle streaming services together to all make more money plus they keep the commercials (maybe more and more as time goes on?) and then boom we’re back to basic cable and package prices!

    @edwardmartinezrodriguez8627 2 месяца назад +4

    Yeah they killed the show for me. Waiting 2.5 years between season 1 and 2 for it to not be immensely better animation-wise, less episodes, season getting split, and have that break be a few months long while giving bs reasons why (there's no way it's needed for an 8 ep season after 2.5 years) did it. It'd be a lot more understandable if it was the quality of the Atom Eve Special, but it isn't lmao
    I'll maybe watch it on Prime Video after it's done, but in the meantime I'll find a way to watch it week-to-week without them getting my view. I refuse to be strung along by a company that's in the top 20 most profitable in the world, holding art/media I like hostage to make me stay and beg. We still have the comics which means the story is still preserved, so I wouldn't be as bothered if the show dies for THIS reason specifically.
    It sucks because I enjoyed season 1 so much and it introduced me to Robert Kirkman's other famous comic, Invincible, but at this rate the time between the finale of season 1 and the finale of season 2 will be just a few weeks shy of 3 years, taking 5 months to release 8 episodes. Entirely too much to adapt a story that's already done to another medium, and with animation that ranges from subpar to decent, with the occasional scene that actually looks good.
    Can you tell this upset me quite a bit at the time (and reopening that can of worms now)? 😂

    • @cl4-tpgaming

    • @edwardmartinezrodriguez8627
      @edwardmartinezrodriguez8627 2 месяца назад

      @cl4-tpgaming a couple of things, I'm not watching all the content surrounding the show, I've only watched this specific video that has a discussion about how Amazon might be hurting the show with how they've handled the show with absolutely no mention of any of the actual content of season 2 and chimed in myself.
      Second, I still like the show itself quite a bit, I'm not invested in the sense that it being cancelled due to Amazon's mishandling and greed would not bother me. I thought I made that clear, and I'm unsure if you're mistaking my passion for the IP (gross way of talking about art but dunno what other word to use) of Invincible and criticisms as just hate or whatever, but me not absolutely glazing Amazon for bestowing an Invincible show to us from their place in the heavens is not me hating on the show itself or me thinking it's beneath me or something.
      Lastly, by "killed the show for me" I don't mean that I hate the show, that it's a bad show, or that I absolutely won't watch it. Again, I really like the show itself. It's that they killed my hype for the show and I will no longer be waiting with baited breath for Amazon and excusing their shitty greedy decisions. Oh and that I'll be looking for ways to watch the show that benefit them the least lmao

    Kirkman himself said it lead to a record number of comic sales for all his work. They didn’t kill shit because they pay people way more money than we could imagine to make that decision…. And it’s working😂

I have been Prime member since the days when it only covered shipping costs for your textbooks. Sadly, I won't cancel Prime but I was taken back by the ads.

Amber always a teen drama, but it avoided "you didn't tell me?" trope like a worthless shit it is and gone stright for how Mark pretty much ghosts people over time and had Eve being somewhat stalkish and to the side.
